"The unexpected death of my mother is what pushed me into country music" answers Jim Van Fleet to the question that's been asked so many times, "what made you pursue the live stage when you have such a cool job already?" Jim recalls those moments just before the decision was made to pursue his lifelong dream. "I got a call at 2:30am just before Mother's Day weekend 2003 to return home to Oklahoma and bury my mother who had just passed at only 49 years old. It's been the hardest and worst experience of my entire life. I was only 28. She was my rock, my sanity, and my best friend. I was devastated." "A lot of things are cloudy and numb from that time but I will never forget standing over her grave and thinking about how much of her life she, and all of her family and friends were cheated out of. I said right then and there I would finally face my fear's of failing, and rejection and would pursue my biggest dream in life...to be a successful Country Artist." Jim Van Fleet (yes the Weatherman on FOX Television) is the front man and lead vocalist for one of the Southeast's hottest country music bands performing right now.
